Murcotts Driver Safety

19/08/2025

A powerful night. A powerful message. 🧡

We joined and for a Youth Driver Safety Presentation - run by locals, for locals.

The event featured CFA, Police and Ambulance officers, heartfelt stories from families affected by road trauma, and a live crash rescue demonstration by the Monbulk CFA Rescue team.

We’re proud to support initiatives like this and donate complimentary Defensive Driving Course vouchers to young drivers in our communities.

💡 Safer driving starts here. Contact us for complimentary vouchers.

🚗💛 National Road Safety Week | 11 – 18 May 2025

At Murcotts Driving Excellence, every program we run begins with one simple idea: Drive so others survive. That’s why our instructors and office team have signed the National Road Safety Week pledge—and why we’re inviting you to join us.

Our pledge

I pledge to drive as if my loved ones are on the road ahead.

I will remove all distractions and never use my mobile phone while driving.

I will not put other people at risk by speeding, driving while tired or under the influence of alcohol/drugs.

I will protect all vulnerable road users, especially those whose job places them in harm’s way, by slowing down and giving them the space they need to be safe.
National Road Safety Week

Why it matters

National Road Safety Week (NRSW) runs 11 – 18 May 2025 and spotlights the 1,300+ lives lost and 40,000 serious injuries on Australian roads every year.
StreetSmarts - Queensland Government

Over 55 years, Murcotts has helped almost 1 million drivers build life-saving habits through our defensive-driving, 4WD, security and e-learning programs.

How you can help

Take the pledge at roadsafetyweek.com.au—30 seconds is all it takes.

Commit to one skill-building session this year—whether it’s our Level 1 Defensive Driving Day or the self-paced e-Drive online course.

Together, let’s make every week a safe-driving week. 💛

🚗💬 We’re absolutely smitten with this throw-back shout-out from Michelle Keating:

“I’m 53 this year, which means I did the course 34–35 years ago at Sandown… (never quite mastered the skids), but the rest of the skills taught—I’m still using!”

That’s exactly why we do what we do.
Driving techniques that stick for decades, keeping you—and everyone around you—safer on the road.

Whether you trained with us last month or back in the ‘80s, those LOOK UP. STAY BACK. habits never go out of style.

Ready to refresh your skills—or give the next generation their own Sandown moment?
